Further plotting and visualization libraries

Beyond matplotlib and seaborn, there are many other plotting and visualization libraries in the Python ecosystem. We give an overview in this section.

High-level plotting

Here are a few high-level plotting libraries in Python.

Bokeh

Bokeh is a web-based, general-purpose, and fast visualization toolkit. It integrates well with the rest of the Python ecosystem and generates interactive plots that don't necessarily require a live Python server.
